The first time I heard MGMT's "Time to Pretend" I was not only blown away by the instrumentals, but cynically admired how great the actual lyrics are. I think The Limousines must've taken a page from their book when they recorded this song--their debut single. Its lyrics really up the cynicism ante, as they poke fun at all the vices and shortcomings comprising modern life that we're not proud of, but no less guilty. Though I don't think they achieve the same level of success as MGMT, it's certainly a noble effort. And on the plus side, atleast this song has a happy ending.
